How brown can the sea be?

We all are used to picture the sea as being blue… and this makes sense, as this is part of our ideal scenario: blue sea under a shiny and blue sky!

Up to know I’ve been so lucky to see many different colours of the sea in different parts of the world, some of them magnificent.

But last weekend I saw the sea has I don’t remember seeing it before: brown!

Why? Just because it was the reflection of the sky, filled with smoke from the several fires on the hills around the town.

Now the sea is blue again… I hope that it will be for long, but I’m not so sure!
